Definitions

a dried cereal product by mixing together water and the ingredients of cereal product; for example in a preconditioner.
the wet mixture may then be shaped into a desired shape; for example using shaping rollers.
the shaped mixture may then be baked in an oven; for example at about 220° C. to about 280° C. for about 10 minutes to about 1 hour.
the dried cereal product has the appearance of a baked biscuit.
Additional ingredients such as sugars, salts, spices, seasonings, flavoring agents, minerals, and the like may also be added to the emulsion.
the amount of additional ingredients used is preferably such that they make up about 1% to about 5% by weight of the gelatinized cereal product.
the temperature of the emulsion is raised to the desired coagulation temperature in the emulsion mill in a few seconds.
the temperature may be raised to from about 100° C. to about 120° C.
the temperature may be raised to in the range of about 45° C. to about 75° C. as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,132,137.
the mechanical energy generated in the emulsion mill will be sufficient to heat the emulsion to the desired temperature but this may be supplemented by the injection of superheated steam.
